^What he/she(?) said^.
The reason/excuse registrars use for the "hold" is that credit card charges can be reversed for up to ~60 days.
Maybe the central registry doesn't like to deal with post-transfer reversals?
If anyone actually running a registrar knows exactly how this works I'd appreciate the insight.
